Electro-Voice EVERSE 8 8-Inch Compact Lightweight Weatherized 2-Way Battery Powered Loudspeaker with Bluetooth Audio and Control (Black)

I've already made several coworkers jealous and started a small "sound war" with the neighbours! Between the build quality and the level of sound manipulation, I bet I could mount this to the roof of my car and make people think there was a freight train blowing past them! You don't just buy this speaker, you get the audio equivalent of the ARC reactor that Ironman had in his dang chest. Absolutely a rockstar product that's lightweight, multipurpose, and pumps the wattage into your, the neighbours , and the molemans cottage! Rock on and rock out

The Electro-Voice Everse 8 is an 8-inch rechargeable speaker that truly delivers. Despite its compact size, it produces clear, powerful, and well-balanced sound, with impressive low-end response and clean projection for both music and vocals. One of its standout features is the battery life, which genuinely meets expectations, offering up to 12 hours of continuous use. This makes it a reliable choice for outdoor events, live performances, rehearsals, or any situation where access to power is limited. Built with Electro-Voice’s professional standards, the Everse 8 feels solid and dependable, while remaining easy to transport. Overall, it sounds great, performs consistently, and offers excellent portability and autonomy. A highly recommended speaker for musicians, DJs, and anyone looking for professional sound in a battery-powered format.

For years my Marshall Tufton has been my primary at-home AND mobile speaker for listening to music. I really love the Tufton's form factor- the size, the shape, the aesthetic, and the volume it can produce. Frankly, the Tufton would be the perfect speaker if not for two major flaws- the obvious one being poor mid-range sound quality, the less obvious being that Marshall has no serviceable parts for it. The Everse 8 is louder than the Tufton, has great midrange, AND all parts are serviceable- the battery is even designed to be popped of and on like a power tool, which is a huge plus! As for the "everything else" considerations, I don't use it to its full potential ie. the multiple channels, effects, etc. But it does have an 8-channel EQ that I have fiddled with, and the feature is awesome, especially coming off the Tufton that only has a knob to adjust bass and a knob to adjust treble. Also, the Everse is weatherproof, which is a huge plus when compared to something like the Bose S1, a more direct competitor to the Everse. The Everse 8 is a professional level piece of equipment, and if you have the need or desire for best-in-class sound and features in its form factor, you cannot do better than this. If you need further reassurance before plopping down $800, there are a ton of "professional" reviews out there that consistently rank the Everse 8 as best in class. And if the fact that I do most of my music listening on a bluetooth speaker makes you question the validity of my opinion, the reason is that my superior home theater system shares a wall with my bedroom, and my wife complains when I listen to music while she's in the bedroom, so I park my bluetooth speaker in the kitchen, where I do most of my music listening.

This is a top-tier battery-powered loudspeaker that delivers impressive sound quality in a compact package. The speaker produces clear, powerful audio, and the built-in Bluetooth makes it easy to stream music wirelessly. The automatic feedback suppression feature works flawlessly, eliminating any annoying sound issues during use. I especially appreciate the music ducking function, which lowers background music when speaking into a mic, making it perfect for presentations. The battery life is insanely long-lasting, and the portability is a huge bonus for on-the-go setups. A fantastic option for musicians, DJs, or event hosts looking for reliability and flexibility.

Excellent sound, many adjustments to tune it just right. Couldn't ask for more out of something as small and portable. Easy to connect to through Bluetooth or the connections on the back. Well thought out and very powerful.

Great purchase so far! I just bought this to start using for small events/ceremonies. The Lightweight portability of this speaker is CRAZY for the power it can put out! I love the functionality of the small led screen to see your DB, the quality also feels very well made. Will probably get another. Overall value for money 10/10.

This speaker is packed with a lot of features for it's small size. I'll list the best and worst in my opinion. Good: The built-in mixer provides many fx, 2 XLR inputs, aux/Bluetooth input, and one XLR output. Vocal sounds very good especially when they are paired in stereo. The cleanest way is probably to use 1 XLR transmitter and 2x XLR receivers all working on the same frequency, one for each speaker in the stereo pair. With his setup you can have the music playing in stereo via TWS Bluetooth, vocal sounding from both speaker at equal volume, and 2 spare mixer outputs for subs. Bad: Bass is lacking. For a decent karaoke setup you will need at least one sub, preferably 2. At 120hz or 150hz cutover the vocal sounds noticably better. Hissing is noticeable at any gain higher than -12dB when the music is not playing.

Excellent small speaker. Versatile with the app and onboard options. Good volume and great battery life. Used consistently in live performance scenarios.
